Swine Flu (H1N1) information in American Sign Language (ASL) is available for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing in a captioned video on the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website at http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/deaf.htm.  
 

On 1-27-10 the Philadelphia Dept of Public Health issued a Health Advisory that Norovirus is circulating in Philadelphia.  This is an extremely powerful GI virus, causing vomiting & diarrhea.  It only takes a small amount of the virus, in the body secretions/ fluids/ excrement to contaminate hands & pass to the next person.
